Tamanna Sharma National Education Reporter — Policy, Governance & Institutional News Author Profile: https://eduadvice.in/author/tamanna "Education news is governance news. Understanding the institutions that shape young lives is one of the most important beats in Indian journalism." Publication: EduAdvice (eduadvice.in) Total Published Articles: 108+ Academic Background: BA in Media & Communications (Journalism) Prior Experience: New India Abroad, Dainik Bhaskar, Earth5R Core Beat: National education policy, UPSC & civil services, institutional milestones, CBSE updates, study abroad, EdTech & AI in education Content Standard: Multi-source verified from PIB, official institution communications, and authenticated government portals About Tamanna Sharma Tamanna Sharma is one of EduAdvice's most experienced and highest-volume reporters, with over 108 published articles covering the breadth of India's national education and institutional news landscape. A BA graduate in Media and Communications with a specialisation in Journalism, she brings professional credibility, editorial maturity, and a versatile reporting range to her work — qualities developed through real-world journalism experience at New India Abroad, Dainik Bhaskar, and the environmental communication organisation Earth5R. Tamanna's professional background as a public speaker, content creator, and journalism aspirant with experience in digital content creation, writing, anchoring, and political communication gives her a multidimensional perspective on education as a public institution. She understands that education news is not just a service to students — it is a form of public accountability journalism. Whether she is reporting on UPSC recruitment results, a CBSE mandate for school counsellors, the inaugural IIM Mumbai convocation, or India's growing international student pipeline to Ireland, Tamanna connects institutional developments to the human realities they affect. Her background in political communication is particularly evident in how she frames institutional news: not as isolated events but as expressions of policy direction, governance priorities, and the evolving relationship between educational institutions and the society they serve. This contextual depth distinguishes her reporting from simple notification coverage and gives it lasting informational value. Beat Expertise & Coverage Depth Tamanna's 108+ articles span an unusually wide range of education news categories. In the civil services and government recruitment space, she has covered UPSC's release of March 2026 recruitment results for multiple government posts — reporting that requires understanding the structure of UPSC's continuous recruitment calendar, the different categories of posts filled through various schemes, and the significance of these appointments for candidates who have completed long and demanding selection processes. Her coverage of CBSE policy developments — including the landmark mandate for school counsellors and wellness teachers — reflects a grasp of the regulatory relationship between the board, affiliated schools, and the broader student mental health agenda that has gained urgency in post-pandemic India. This kind of policy implementation reporting requires familiarity with CBSE's circular-based governance system and the institutional context in which new mandates land. Tamanna has broken significant institutional milestone stories, most notably the IIM Mumbai's inaugural MBA convocation — a landmark event marking the graduation of the first batch from India's newest IIM. Her reporting captured both the statistical significance (505 graduates) and the symbolic weight of the occasion, producing content that served both news and institutional record purposes. Her coverage of India's international student engagement — including the record-high enrolment of Indian students in Ireland — places EduAdvice firmly in the study abroad intelligence space. This article, requiring awareness of both Indian outbound student trends and destination-country higher education capacity, exemplifies the kind of forward-looking, globally aware reporting that serves students and families thinking beyond domestic education options. Tamanna's reporting on Madhya Pradesh's launch of FinTech and AI Certificate Courses in 68 colleges represents the EdTech and state education innovation beat — tracking how state governments are responding to labour market skill demands by embedding emerging technology education into the existing college infrastructure. Her report on the BHASHINI workshop at Delhi University, covering government-promoted AI-based preservation of the Pali language, similarly demonstrates range across education, technology, and cultural heritage policy. Editorial Standards & Research Process With a professional journalism background including experience at major national and international news organisations, Tamanna brings trained editorial discipline to her work at EduAdvice. Her reporting draws on official government sources — PIB press releases, CBSE official communications, UPSC official result publications, institution convocation data — and she maintains the multi-source verification habits that formal journalism training instils. For coverage of international education trends, she draws on both domestic Ministry of Education statements and destination-country education authority data. Her digital content creation background gives her additional facility with reaching diverse audiences across platforms — she understands how education news is consumed differently by students, parents, educators, and policy observers, and she writes accordingly.
